3 of the most dynamic offensive players at there position. Arguably the 3 worst defenders at there position as well

lol, should be fun to what them play...


Brook is improved on that end but, he sure as hell is not covering up for anyone's mistakes...


he could always block shots near the rim but lets not kid ourselves. He has no idea how to defend the pick and roll and isn't a great help defender. He has gotten a lot better then when he can into the league but he also isn't covering up anyone mistakes back there and with IT and Love being put in the P&R god help that center try to defend that onslaught.


I'm gonna draft some elite defenders to put on my opposing team's best players. I also don't understand the hate with Love's defense. He's average. Also IT isn't the worst defender. He has quick feet. He's below average, but definitely not amongst the worst.

Sad Part is people think KYrie is better than him. Kyrie should not even be the starter for ASG. I was telling you before teh draft. I would take Wall before Kyrie anyday of the week.

I'm not hating on the pick all our great values. But you aren't going to sell me on two defensive players making up for those 3 on defense. Not gunna happen.

oh of course, but you can see the game before a significantly better defender like Conley makes Wall at least a little more inefficient from the field. Wall is going to get his #'s regardless.

this is true, but I would be surprised if the judges feel differently.

I have a pick coming up in 15 spots. Im willing to trade down 10 or so spots in the 3rd round for some depth.

Looking at the upcoming picks, there's a good chance to get through a lot of picks today with the guys picking...there's also a good chance my draft board gets annihilated.

I love Ariza. Elite defense, good shooter, consistent. Underrated player.

Sad day when the Knicks traded him away...and now we are on our 5th front office guy since then

Steve Francis man. A washed up Steve Francis when our best player was already a score first ball dominant PG. It's like letting the 6th grader who was good at 2k play Franchise mode
